Expert Tips
Fresh Citrus Tip
Always squeeze fresh citrus juice rather than using bottled. Roll the fruit on the counter before cutting to release more juice, and strain out seeds and pulp for a smoother drink.
Sweetener Tip
Make your own simple syrup by dissolving equal parts sugar and hot water. It mixes more smoothly than granulated sugar and allows precise sweetness control.
Party Planning Tip
Prepare your punch base the night before and refrigerate. Add ice and sparkling ingredients just before guests arrive for maximum freshness and fizz.
